Custom Non-Standard Bearings

Custome Bearing Basics

Custom bearings are designed specifically to meet the requirements that most standard bearings cannot fulfill. Unlike standard bearings, our custom options are specifically tailored to your needs through a comprehensive customization process. Our goal is always to provide you with products that perform well, have a long service life, and meet your exact specifications.
In general, customization involves a very detailed bearing design process in which we determine the size, material, precision, and lubrication required for your application.

FODA Bearing's Design Capabilities

With over 20 years of experience and extensive design capabilities, It helps us meet different application needs.

Customized Precision

Inappropriate bearing sizes can lead to project delays, damage, and many other problems. Therefore, applications requiring precise tolerances and smoother operation demand high precision. Even the smallest deviation can have a huge impact on performance and cost. This is why our services are highly trusted by clients in the medical, aerospace, and transportation industries.

Customized Lubrication

In many applications where reducing friction and extending service life are critical, proper lubrication is crucial. Depending on your needs (such as temperature, speed, climate, etc.), we may also recommend other lubrication methods. This not only ensures efficient operation of the bearings but also helps maintain their performance for several years to come. We also handle custom bearing designs that require special lubricants, coatings, and other specific lubrication requirements.

Types of Custom Bearings

With our experience and expertise, FODA Bearings can provide various types of custom bearings to meet your specific configuration requirements:

Advantages of Custom Bearings

There are several advantages to choosing custom bearings:

Performance optimization
Since custom bearings are designed to meet such precise requirements, they can improve efficiency, make operation smoother, and handle unique operating conditions.

Long life
The custom bearings we design are built to last. The materials and design tailored to your application increase durability and reduce replacement frequency. This means you'll get higher cost-effectiveness and efficiency. Reliability
Precise design ensures that each bearing meets the precise specifications of your application. This will translate to stable performance and minimize the risk of unexpected failures, thereby enhancing the overall reliability of the equipment.

High load capacity
Custom bearings can support specific load requirements, whether radial, axial, or combined loads. This capability ensures optimal performance even under heavy load conditions, providing the necessary support for demanding applications.

Corrosion resistance
Custom bearings can be made from the following materials: stainless steel and ceramic, which have excellent corrosion resistance. This property is particularly important in environments exposed to moisture, chemicals, or extreme temperatures, as it extends the bearing's service life and maintains its performance.

Custom Materials

We offer a variety of materials to meet your needs. These materials include but are not limited to:

● 52100 Steel
Known for its hardness and wear resistance.
● Polyurethane
Recommended for roller bearings and similar applications due to its elasticity.
● 440C, 304, 316L Stainless Steel
Affordable and highly resistant to corrosion.
● Cronidur 30
High-performance steels suitable for extreme conditions.
● Ceramics
This includes materials such as aluminum oxide (Al2O3), silicon nitride (Si3N4), silicon carbide (SiC), and zirconium oxide (ZrO2), all of which can provide high-temperature and wear resistance for demanding applications.

Custom Sizes

Our bearings are designed and manufactured in a wide range of sizes to meet the needs of all types of applications. From consumer products to aerospace components to high-precision bearings for machinery, we can meet your requirements.
